If you're making your way to the Apple and Pork festival this weekend, there will be a few new feature act for adults and kids, and also a new kids attraction.

A Springfield man will make the trip to Clinton for this year and showcase his abilities with a whip. Larry Buss, Resident Manager of the CH Moore Homestead explains "The Whip Guy" was on America's Got Talent and does some incredible things with the whip.

According to Buss, the same family will have an old time train car on hand for the kids to push around. The 'Gandy Dancer' is the person on the car that pushes it up and down the tracks, and kids can what it was like to operate one of those.

The Whip Guy will only be around the grounds on Sunday, and Buss says he will put on a great show for those who make their way out this year.
